Professor Chris Stringer (FRS) is an engaging and dynamic speaker who has been invited to give talks throughout Britain and beyond. He made the Evening Standard’s list of the “Most Influential People of 2012” as “Britain’s foremost expert on human evolution and a pioneer in this rapidly changing field”. He is well known for his TV appearances such as the BBC One Show, Museum of Life and is a frequent commentator on national and international news outlets.

His early research was on the relationship of Neanderthals and early modern humans in Europe, but through his work on the ‘Recent African Origin’ theory of modern human origins, he now collaborates with archaeologists and geneticists to reconstruct the evolution of modern humans globally.
